Welcome to the website for our artistic project,
The Crossover Projekt. The Crossover Projekt was created in
Partnership with and under the umbrella of
Isabel Gotzkowsky and Friends, a New York not-for profit dance
organization and the Tanzakademie balance1, located in Berlin. We are excited that you are interested in the project and hope that you will visit this site often.
Since November 2013 we have been working hard, getting this project going and we consider ourselves very lucky to be working with some wonderfully talented dancers as well as collaborating with great
artists. Our premiere took place in March of 2014 in Hamburg, with additional performances in Tübingen and Berlin in April. We performed to full houses and received wonderful feedback about the work,
the performances and the concept of the project.
It didn't end there: For the first incarnation, we were able to secure four more performances: We performed in
Prague, collaborating with guest choreographer
Dagmar Spain, in September, followed by participation at the
Kemptener TANZHerbst in Mid-October, finishing with a performance at
Tanzprobebühne marameo in Berlin on November 1, all in 2014.
The program for the second round of performances included a new guest choreographer:
Todd Courage from
San Francisco, who came to Berlin in early May 2014 to set a brand-new piece on 6 Crossover dancers.
In November 2014 we held auditions for dancers to work with us in 2015, the second year of the project. This year we are working with 8 dancers and 5 guest choreographers, including 2 alumni from
last year, Theresa von Hunoltstein and Nanna Holst, who were part of the project as dancers in 2014. We are proud to present the work in seven performances in Berlin and Hamburg this coming
September.
Thank you for your interest! We hope to see you at one of our shows.
Isabel & the Crossover Team.
